Project Ithaca

It wasn't quite what I was expecting, but I thought it was pretty interesting. Most of the story is told though the characters, and the flashbacks to their lives.

The acting was decent, and the tension was kept pretty high at points. So I did find it enjoyable. It had it's creepy moments too. Although more about the aliens could have been explained through one of the main characters Sara.

I thought the ending could have been stronger, and had a little bit more explanation.

Most of the negative reviews, 5 and under, are not from those of us who understand for what it is. Not the best Sci/Fi movie but worthy of watching. People waiting for a movie with comic book heroes , space explosions, alien walking human like torsos, special effects etc. will dis this movie. This is a thinkers movie , the 'what if' plot , being the gist of the of this Sci/Fi drama.

First of all, I have nothing to do with the folks who made this film. No bias here, just my honest opinion. Well, maybe a little bias since I'm a sci-fi nut in general.

I thought the story held together decently. Not perfect but I've seen worse... Acting was decent, effects were decent... I'd watch it again.

Not sure why so many dislike it, I'm gonna go with "matter of taste".

Not a block buster but not horrible either. Perhaps watch it as a "warm up movie" on your movie evening, then you'll still have something better to watch IF you don't like this one.

I really wish IMDB would screen reviewers. The other two either are friends of the actors or paid by the production company.

Bad acting, boring and snail pace movement with no direction. What else... bad writing, ridiculous special effects and just plain blahhhh.

It is mostly just a group of people (and yes, they know each other...mostly) with no acting skills talking with occasional flashback that made no sense. Difficult to follow and hard to watch. Also a bad version of the Matrix's Oracle (an obvious copy), and I'm still trying to work out the 'Generals' rank with staff sergeant stripes? pips changed from 3 to 1 during the movie, perhaps someone could enlighten me.

Don't waste your time, not even worthy of a B grade, a 2 because I was having a good day.

Here is another film that has a blimming decent concept going for it, but got lazy and sat on its bum for 90 min.

The acting isn't bad at all and some decent script writing. Unfortunately there seems to be some major budget constraints as the sets were minimal and not enough exposure of what exactly was going on.

The story went back and forth a bit too many times but did manage to tie into itself at the end. There should have been way more explainations offerred and more scenes backing the explainations.

Overall, it wasn't that bad of a film but it also wasn't super either. Maybe one day with a bigger budget, a remake will make the story pop!

Good try chaps - but for me, you only get 5 out of 10 stars.
